Lives of Tintoretto (Lives of the Artists)
Born Jacopo Comin, Tintoretto (ca. 1519–1594) was one of the great painters of the late Renaissance.

This volume also includes a translation of the marginal notes El Greco wrote in his copy of Vasari’s Life of Tintoretto, which have never before been published.
